Detailed Implementation

[0031] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] The retarder control system includes an air inlet 1, an air outlet 2, an exhaust outlet 3, a two-position two-way solenoid valve 4, a two-position three-way solenoid valve 5, and a relay valve 7.

[0034] One air inlet 1 is connected to the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 via an air passage, and the other is connected to the air inlet 1 of the relay valve 7; the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 is connected to the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5, and the air passage between the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 and the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is controlled by the on / off state of the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4. When energized, the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 is connected to the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5.

[0035] The outlet of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is connected to the control chamber of the relay valve 7, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the relay valve 7. When the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is energized, its outlet is in a connected state; when the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is de-energized, its outlet is in a disconnected state.

[0036] The opening and closing of the relay valve 7 valve assembly can control the compressed air from the inlet 1 to the outlet 2; it also includes a controller 8, and a pressure sensor 9 is provided at the outlet 2 end. The pressure sensor 9 is connected to the controller 8, and the controller 8 controls the on / off of the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 and the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 according to the pressure collected at the outlet 2.

[0037] In order to maintain the pressure of the outlet 2 within a set range, a pressure protection valve 10 is also included. The pressure protection valve 10 is connected to the outlet 2, and the outlet end of the pressure protection valve 10 is connected to the exhaust port 3. When the pressure of the outlet 2 is greater than the preset range, the pressure protection valve 10 discharges the excess compressed air to reduce the pressure of the outlet 2. When the pressure falls within the set range, the valve of the pressure protection valve 10 closes to prevent the leakage of compressed air from the outlet 2.

[0038] To ensure that the pressure regulation function at the outlet 2 can still be achieved even if the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 fails, this solution also includes a two-position two-way solenoid valve 11. The inlet of the two-position two-way solenoid valve 11 is connected to the outlet of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5, and the outlet of the two-position two-way solenoid valve 11 is connected to the exhaust port 3. When the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 fails, the controller 8 energizes the two-position two-way solenoid valve, and the compressed air in the control chamber of the relay valve 7 can be discharged from the exhaust port 3.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] The retarder control device, including the retarder control system described in Embodiment 1, includes a valve body 12, an air inlet 1, an air outlet 2 and an exhaust outlet 3 disposed on the valve body 12, and an air passage and an air hole are provided inside the valve body 12 for connecting the air inlet 1, the air outlet 2, the exhaust outlet 3, a two-position two-way solenoid valve 4, a two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 and a relay valve 7.

[0041] The air inlet of the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 is chamber A 15. The air inlet 1 enters the valve body 12 through channel 16. Channel 16 is provided with hole 17 and hole 2 18.

[0042] The valve body 12 is provided with a third hole 20 and a second channel 21 connected to the third hole 20. The other end of the second channel 21 is a fourth hole 22. The fourth hole 22 is connected to the air inlet B chamber 23 of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5. The third hole 20 is connected to the air outlet of the two-position two-way three-way valve. The two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 controls the opening and closing of the valve 24 by switching the power on and off, thereby controlling the connection and disconnection of chamber A 15 and the third hole 20.

[0043] The outlet of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is chamber C 25. The valve body 12 is also provided with a channel 3 26. One end of channel 3 26 is connected to chamber C 25 through hole 6 27, and the other end of channel 3 26 is connected to the control chamber E 29 of the relay valve 7 through hole 7 28. The on and off of the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 controls the connection or disconnection of chamber C 25 and chamber B 23.

[0044] The compressed air in chamber E 29 can control the opening and closing of relay valve 7, valve 24, and exhaust valve port; when valve 24 is open and exhaust valve port 31 is closed, chamber F 19 and chamber G 32, which is connected to the exhaust port 2, are connected; when valve 24 is closed and exhaust valve port 31 is open, chamber G 32 and exhaust port 3 are connected; chamber G 32 is equipped with pressure sensor 9 and also includes controller 8, which is connected to pressure sensor 9. Controller 8 controls the on / off of two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 and two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 according to the received pressure signal to control the pressurization, pressure holding, and pressure reduction of exhaust port 2.

[0045] In this embodiment, the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 includes a second valve port 34 and an exhaust valve port 35. The two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 includes a valve core, an inlet end, an outlet end, and an exhaust end. In the de-energized state, the valve core abuts against the second valve port 34, separating the B chamber 23 and the outlet end, and the outlet end is connected to the exhaust end. In the energized state, the valve core moves to open the second valve port 34 while sealing the exhaust valve port 35. The system also includes a pressure protection valve 10, which is mounted on the valve body 12. The inlet end of the pressure protection valve 10 is connected to the G chamber 32, and the outlet end of the pressure protection valve 10 is connected to the exhaust port 3. When the pressure at the inlet end is greater than the preset pressure of the pressure protection valve 10, the valve port of the pressure protection valve 10 opens to exhaust air.

[0046] The valve body 12 also includes channels 4 (37) and 6 (38). Channel 4 (37) is connected to the exhaust end of the 2-position 3-way solenoid valve 5 via hole 8 (39), and the other end of channel 4 (37) is connected to the exhaust port 3. One end of channel 6 (38) is connected to the outlet end of the pressure protection valve 10, and the other end is connected to the exhaust end of the 2-position 3-way exhaust valve. It also includes a 2-position 2-way solenoid valve 2 (11), whose inlet end is chamber D (40). Chamber D (40) is connected to chamber C (25) via channel 8 (53) on the valve body 12. The hole connecting channel 8 (53) to chamber C (25) is hole 5 (41), and the hole connecting channel 8 (53) to chamber D (40) is hole 12 (42). It also includes a channel 7 (43) on the valve body 12. One end of channel 7 (43) is connected to the outlet end of the 2-position 2-way solenoid valve 2 (11) via hole 11, and the other end of channel 7 (43) is connected to the exhaust port 3.

[0047] The device also includes an upper cover 13 and a housing 14, which are installed at both ends of the valve body 12. The controller 8 is a PCB control panel, which is installed inside the housing 14. The PCB control panel is connected to a two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 and a two-position three-way solenoid valve 5. The two-position three-way solenoid valve 5, the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4, and the relay valve 7 are installed in the valve cavity opened on the valve body 12.

[0048] Working principle:

[0049] Compressed air enters from inlet 1, passes through channel 16, enters chamber A 15 through hole 17, enters relay valve 7 inlet 1 through hole 2 18, and reaches chamber F 19.

[0050] Intake response characteristics: When the ECU receives a throttle pedal or engine torque signal, it communicates with the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 and the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5. After the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 is energized, it opens valve port 1. Compressed air in chamber A 15 enters channel 21 through port 3 20, and then enters chamber B 23 through port 4 22. After the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is energized, it opens valve port 2 34. Compressed air enters chamber C 25, and then splits into two paths. One path enters chamber D 40 through port 5 41, channel 8 53, and port 12 42. The other path enters through port 6 27, then through channel 3 26, and enters chamber E 29 of relay valve 7 through port 7 28. This pushes piston 50 upward, making contact with valve 24 and pushing valve 24 upward, opening valve port 3 49. When exhaust valve port 2 (31) is closed, compressed air in chamber F (19) enters chamber G (32) and then exits from exhaust port 2. A pressure sensor (9) at the electronic control unit monitors the pressure at exhaust port 2 in real time and sends feedback to the ECU. The ECU then controls the on / off state of the two-position three-way solenoid valve (5) to control the pressure in chamber E (29) controlled by relay valve 7, thus stabilizing the pressure at exhaust port 2 within the design range. When the pressure is below the design range, the ECU energizes the two-position three-way solenoid valve (5) to increase the pressure. When the pressure is above the design range, the ECU de-energizes the two-position three-way solenoid valve (5), closing port 2 (34) and opening exhaust valve port 1 (35). Compressed air enters chamber H (45), then through orifice 8 (39) into channel 4 (37), and finally exits from exhaust port 3. Once the pressure stabilizes, the ECU de-energizes the two-position two-way solenoid valve (4), closing port 1 to cut off the air supply pressure and maintain pressure.

[0051] Meanwhile, this valve is equipped with a pressure protection valve 10. Compressed air in chamber G 32 enters channel 56 through hole 9, and then enters chamber I 48 through hole 10 55. When the pressure at outlet 2 is higher than the design range, the compressed air pushes valve 2 47 to the right, opening valve port 46. The compressed air enters chamber J 52, passes through channel 6 38, enters chamber H 45, and is discharged through exhaust port 3. When the pressure in chamber G 32 reaches the design range, valve 2 47 moves to the left under the action of spring force, thereby closing valve port 46. The above operation achieves the pressure protection function.

[0052] Exhaust response characteristics: The ECU communicates with the two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 and the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5. The two-position two-way solenoid valve 4 is de-energized, thereby cutting off the air supply pressure. The two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 is de-energized, closing valve 24 and opening exhaust valve port 35. The compressed air in chamber E 29 passes through chamber C 25 and chamber H 45 and is discharged from exhaust port 3. The piston 50 moves down under the action of the compressed air, thereby closing valve 24 and opening exhaust valve port 31. The compressed air in chamber G 32 is discharged from exhaust port 3.

[0053] Additionally, this valve is equipped with a two-position two-way solenoid valve 211. When the two-position three-way solenoid valve 5 fails, the two-position two-way solenoid valve 211 can provide protection. When the pressure at outlet 2 is too high, the ECU communicates with the two-position two-way solenoid valve 211. After the two-position two-way solenoid valve 211 is energized, it opens valve 1245, then enters channel 743 through hole 1154, and is discharged from outlet 3, thus regulating the pressure at outlet 2.

[0055] The vehicle is equipped with the aforementioned retarder control device.
